Sméagol Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 The game arrived about an hour ago. They included a tiny Pikachu haha (though I should have gone with the bundle that comes with a starter plushie..). I chose Sobble. I named him @Glen-i. No I'm kidding. 1

I called mine Leon too for precisely the same reason! 1 1
Sméagol Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 Haha! That's amazing! To be honest not many other famous chameleons came to mind, but it didn't matter as I thought it was fitting anyway.. 1
Scratch Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 FINALLY ARRIVED! Proceeded to start playing Pokemon Sword and pick Grookey. I spent ages resetting for an Adamant Nature (I know about the mints but idk when you actually get them. Anyway, caught a few Pokemon and now I've just reached the first Pokemon Center. Next I'm going to try and figure out if/how I can start a new game twice on Shield so I can send the other two starters to my Sword save. (Also am I the only one that felt sorry for the starter that's not picked for the moment before Leon takes it? xD)

I don't mind doing that if you want.
Sméagol Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) So I named the squirrel Berri, the little blue bird Falco, and the sheep is Shaun of course. I also spent most of my money in the boutique haha. I just love customisation. I'll be spending a lot of money on clothes.. 59 minutes ago, Sckewi said: (Also am I the only one that felt sorry for the starter that's not picked for the moment before Leon takes it? xD) No..

Can make it a mixed attacker at least. And yeah, I felt sorry for it as well.
Aperson Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 Bought the game today and played a considerable amount. I've just finished the Gym opening ceremony and about to head towards the first gym challenge. Already obtained half of my final team that I intend to use for the rest of the game, assuming one of the Pokemon I obtained is the pre-evo of Corviknight. If it isn't, I will have to change track. That Pokemon was never officially revealed so my team will be boxed in a Spoiler but if anyone wants to know what I've got so far, feel free to expand the box below.
Ike Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 I just beat a level 31 Haunter with a level 10 Wooloo (and another early game 'mon)! 1
Glen-i Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 Oh, BTW. If anyone wants to swap cards with me, use Y-Comm and set the link code to 4444. I kinda want to collect N-E's cards.

You need to get to the town after the wild area first. But the cool thing is that I can keep the search going while I play the game. So whenever anyone is ready with a card, they can just enter that code and when I'm not in a battle, it'll let me know.
Glen-i Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 OK, 4444 is too obvious of a code, loads of people are guessing it. So I'm making my trade card code 4129 instead.

I figured as much but I've been having exploring the wild area too much.

Glen-i Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 Raid battles have potential to be quite fun if there happens to be tougher Pokémon later on. I should carry on though. I'll join in if I happen to notice anyone on my friend list start a raid, but it depends on if I'm in a battle/cutscene or not. So don't be offended if I miss it.
RedShell Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 I’m really not getting the online setup on this game. It seems pointlessly convoluted. Would’ve much preferred a bog-standard friends list. The game itself is great though, been having a lot of fun exploring and discovering new Pokémon.
Sméagol Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 Ehm, let's see if this works. Spoiler 0000 0001 W9YR LD
